Eibach Sportline Springs on G coupe

hi guys i was just wondering whether or not the eibach sportline springs would cause any problems with the 06 G coupe. im pretty sure the drop is 1.6" in the front and 1.4" in the rear. by the way i have the stock 17"s.

You will most likely gain a bit more negative camber, as well.

Yes. The Sportline drop looks like it sags in the rear. Search for pics and you'll see what I mean.

I'm selling my Eibach Prokit/Tokico D-Spec combo soon... rear extensions included for the D-Specs.

Mine dropped 1.5" front and 1.25" rear. It settles at a bit more than advertised. I needed front and rear camber kits.

Dampers aren't needed right away but the lower ride height will definitely shorten the life of the OEM struts.

Unless you use OEM 350Z springs then yes you will need camber kits to do it right anytime you lower a car more than .5" because even a 1" drop will mean you are maxed out as far as adjustability with the OEM A-arms and camber rods.
